Students apply to and desire acceptance to Yale, in order that they might attend one of the greatest universities on planet earth, not to ignore one of the costliest. Yet what is it parents get for their money?
Wisdom, such as that imparted by Wallerstein?
Still, what seems clear is that the experience of the Bush years, now drawing to a close amid the worst economic calamity in eight decades, have bolstered those who long predicted a clipped American eagle. "What George Bush did was turn a slow decline into a precipitous one," says the noted Yale University sociologist Immanuel Wallerstein, who has been predicting the end of the American empire since the 1980s.
"We've had two standout factors: the Iraq war, which not only demonstrated but actually accelerated this decline in power, and then the way this president put the American government in such deep debt," Mr. Wallerstein says. "What we see playing out before us is the culmination of these actions."
What a fool.
George Bush took a slow decline and dropped it through the floor due to the debt crisis? Or is it the events of the last four weeks? Which one Wallerstein? because NOTHING George Bush has done caused Fanny Mae, Freddie Mac or the collapse of the mortgages followed by the banks, followed by ... To listen to you whine on, this is what students at Yale get for their money? Your infinite ignorance?
Students are better off not going to college. They would be infinitely more wise.
